CCD – Religious Education

Our parish Religious Education Program offers faith formation for children not enrolled in a parochial school which consists of class study and preparation for the reception of the sacraments.

It is a moral obligation for Catholic parents to educate their children in the faith. That way they will learn to know, love, and serve God. The goal of the parish Religious Education Program is to assist parents in enabling and encouraging students to learn more about and live their faith. In all things, learning to pray, understand the Liturgy, Mass attendance, service to others, and love of neighbor is promoted.

Our program provides religious instruction to children from grades 1 to 8. They will receive the First Communion in 2nd grade and Confirmation in 8th grade.

Our Catechists are faithful volunteer parishioners who are well prepared to teach religious education. The Catechists attend workshops and seminars annually. They also attend the Protecting God’s Children program, as required by the Archdiocese of Newark.

Our Catechists:

Martina and Paul Pestic – Pre-Communion Class
Sister Joicy Palatty, S.D.V. – First Communion Class
Sister Emilia Dina, S.D.V. – Post Communion Class
Mrs. Glenda Poventud – Pre-Confirmation Class
Mrs. Imelda Katjomuise – Confirmation Class
